I've seen this a few times, but this is the largest lump of goop I've encountered attached to a fly's eye. It's firmly stuck and I couldn't move it while picking off other detritus. I thought it was just a blob of pollen, but not so sure now. It's very well anchored in place. Could it be a mutated "growth"?
Shot with 10x Mitty onto full frame. FoV is about 2.6mm wide.
